At r70736, webkit-patch land -g HEAD started failing for me.
(The bug for which I tried to land the patch is a security bug. Can this be a factor?)
$ git status
# On branch *********
nothing to commit (working directory clean)
$ webkit-patch land -g HEAD

Unfortunately, webkit-patch land has always had this issue. webkit-patch land -g only works if the changelog doesn't need to be modified.
It occurs to me that this could be fixed by reordering some code. Right now, the way it works for committing a specific commit:
1. Update the changelogs based off the bug
2. Create a dummy branch
3. Cherry pick the given commit to the dummy branch
4. Commit the dummy branch
5. Switch back to the original branch
In theory, we could do step 1 after step 3 and everything would work right. As the code is currently structured, that might be a bit tricky, but it's possible.
I don't have time to fix this, but I'd be happy to review a patch that did.

I did this from the master branch:
$ webkit-patch land -g mybranch
It committed mybranch but used as SVN message the ChangeLog of the master branch's HEAD. :|

Perhaps we should remove support for -g from land?
